Red Mansion Jia Lan: Do you want to run away tonight to visit your relatives? Chapter 174: The fierce battle is in full swing, with two arrows hitting each other
Chapter 174: The fierce battle is in full swing, with two arrows hitting each other
Seeing that the man pouring hot water on the gate of the inn was shot down by the leader Chen Shan several times, his subordinates cheered and strode into the inn with weapons in their hands.
For the overwhelming wealth in Lin Shixian's caravan, Chen Shan was really ruthless this time and pulled over almost all his men who could fight.
A total of seven hundred people.
Although half of them have joined the team in the past year and can only be used to fight against the wind, they have seen blood at least, and they can be used to some extent.
The ones he relies on most are the men and women wearing armor around him. They are all old men who have followed him for more than three years. They are used to living a life of licking blood from the edge of a knife and dare to kill and fight.
These people wore standard armor snatched from the army, and they were so fierce that as soon as they joined the battle, Ou Baihu felt the pressure on his shoulders suddenly increase.
With his eyesight, he could tell at a glance that these people wearing military armor were long-standing gangsters, and it was time to test himself.
These armored men seemed to be rushing around randomly, but they were very organized. After a while, they worked together to move the cars that Lin Shixian had arranged in advance in the open space of the square, opening a new passage for the people behind them.
Originally, Lin Shixian's strategy was to wait and see, rely on the intelligence of the opponent's incoming attack in advance to counterattack, and catch the opponent off guard.
Although Chen Rong, one of the bandit leaders, was successfully shot to the ground, the numerical disadvantage was still not fundamentally reversed.
Now that the opponent has joined a large number of new forces, the disadvantage continues to expand.
The archers among the Yangshan bandits are not only targeting the hostile side, they have never taken their eyes away from their own people.
Yes, these archers are the real direct descendants of Chen Shan.
Brothers Chen Shan and Chen Rong were both born as Orions, and from the beginning they paid great attention to recruiting Orions from all over the country as their team.
These archers who were born as hunters are the real elite of the Yangshan bandits!
On the battlefield, these people also serve as supervisors of the battle team.
When the rest of the Yangshan thieves saw the archers pulling their bows in a pretentious manner, and their eyes fell on themselves and the others, their scalps went numb. No matter how reluctant they were, they could only rush forward.<
/p>
Boom! Boom! Boom! The heavy and dull sound of drums came from the Drum Tower.
Hearing the sound of drums, Ou Baihu and other internal guards were refreshed. For them, this rhythm was very easy to identify, and it was exactly the sound of drumming in the army.
The sound of the drum gradually accelerated until it continued continuously, resounding through the night sky like countless muffled thunders.
This is the signal to launch a charge!
"Follow me first!"
Ou Baihu cheered up, waved his hands to the left and right, and led everyone to retreat slowly.
The Yangshan bandits continue to attack the inn, and many of the obstacles put up earlier have been pushed away.
"Fire is coming!"
Ou Baihu led his men to fight all the way, uncovered something hidden on one of the couches, took the torch from his companions and threw it straight inside, causing a raging fire.
Subsequently, the inner guards worked together to ram the burning couch into a densely populated area of enemies.
It turned out that the car was filled with sesame oil prepared in the back kitchen of the inn.
Everyone followed the same example and pushed several burning couches to ignite the vehicles that were originally placed in the open space of the inn. The vehicles were not loaded with goods at all, but were all flammable materials such as thatch.
Suddenly sparks flew out, and the sky turned red.
In the light of the fire, Ou Baihu fought bloody battles and led everyone to stabilize the situation again.
On the Drum Tower, Jia Lan held his breath and concentrated, transcending all the noisy sounds of fighting, and kept bending his bow and strings to knock down the enemies one by one.
In the guest house at the rear, Luo Shiniang's eyes changed slightly when she heard the shouts of death rising in front, and the continuous sound of drums that followed. Especially when she saw the flames rising into the sky, her expression changed.
It became even more pale.
Even Qingwen, who has always been calm, has a hint of worry in her eyes.
Dongqing was so frightened that she was a little numb. She could only cling to the other two maids who were also frightened. Together with them, they surrounded Aunt Lu and stood behind Eleven Niang.
Also frightened were the merchants standing around the goods in the infield. Their legs were shaking, and the fear on their faces was twice as strong as that of Shi Yiniang.
Some people simply knelt down on the ground and knelt down, muttering plausibly without knowing what they were saying.
Liang Yong and Qin Zhong stood by holding the gentleman's sword they wore.
Among the crowd, a malicious gaze was secretly looking at the two of them.
Chen Rong fell to the ground in front of the inn door. His vision began to become blurry and his ears were empty. Looking at the blazing flames, he could not help but recall a past event.
That year, that mountain, the old man on the mountain who taught his brothers hard qigong.
And that... it was also a night when the fire was blazing into the sky.
"Don't be too complacent, you must know that there is heaven outside the world, and there are people outside the world!"
Chen Rong's mind echoed with the old man's last words to his brother...
"There is no such thing as absolute in the world. You just occupy the word "gang". Facing those who have mastered skill, you don't even have the power to fight back! The real strong ones have always been..."
"Old man, you talk too much nonsense!"
On the side, Chen Shan cursed fiercely.
Then there was a muffled sound, and everything went silent, except for the crackling sound caused by the fire.
Qiaojin!?
Chen Rong's eyes widened slightly.
"Second brother!" Chen Shan ran over and felt bad when he saw his younger brother who was hit by three arrows and kept vomiting blood from his mouth.
In a daze, Chen Rong seemed to hear his elder brother calling him, and wanted to raise his head, but now he didn't even have half the strength.
Upon seeing this, Chen Shan quickly knelt down and carefully lifted Chen Rong up, holding his head.
Seeing the familiar silhouette of his elder brother, Chen Rong opened his mouth and tried to say something, but he couldn't say even a single word.
The force of Jialan's arrow also damaged his trachea.
"Escape..."
"What are you going to say!?"
As soon as Chen Shan finished speaking, Chen Rong coughed out a mouthful of blood and collapsed.
Looking at his younger brother's eyes that gradually became distracted, Chen Shan suddenly felt that all his joints were being soaked with cold water. He could neither breathe nor speak.
Until the end, he didn't hear clearly what Chen Rong wanted to say.
There were shouts of fighting all around, but Chen Shan felt like he was trapped on a desolate, silent island.
He felt a beast-like consciousness suddenly surge up, his lips oozed with traces of blood, and his whole body was shaking.
No one dared to approach him.
"Bring me my iron bow."
He slowly put his brother down, lowered his head and said in a deep voice. His attendant quickly took off the things he was carrying, unwrapped them, and handed them to him along with the quiver.
The drums were pounding on the drum tower, and Jia Lan, who was a little tired, cheered up and shot more than ten arrows in succession. It seemed that two quivers had been empty.
Just as he was taking a breath, Jia Lan suddenly had all the hairs on his body standing on end, and his heart was throbbing for no reason.
This is a warning from his spiritual sense to him, an unprecedented warning!
←?
→?
No! Both directions are dead ends!
The spiritual sense instantly gave feedback. Jia Lan leaned back, two strong winds crossed at the tip of his nose, and two arrows hit the beams of the Drum Tower, making a buzzing sound.<
/p>
What a powerful arrow!
Jia Lan broke out in a cold sweat, but before he could breathe a sigh of relief, his spiritual sense warned him again.
Not good!
He immediately realized that it was a flurry of arrows!
